This week we welcome royalty to the podcast! The self-proclaimed king of Amillennialism is joining us to talk about how to maintain and proclaim our Baptist distinctives while engaging with other denominations. Keith (or Your Calvinist) is known for his hilarious denominational meeting videos. We chat about subjects like what does it mean to be a Baptist, how to engage with fellow Christians in other denomination and finally how important is it fellowship with those outside our own traditions. We recorded this the day Pope Francis died, so we also had some thoughts about Roman Catholicism as well.

I love having former students come on the podcast and share what God is doing in their lives. This week's podcast features Rebecca Meier who works with DOOR International reaching the deaf community for Christ. This interview opened my eyes to the unreached people that live among us everyday. I'm also ashamed to say that much of my understanding of the needs of the deaf community needed to be corrected. Truly the student has become the master... Also, listen in as she talks about her interior design company. Wife, Mother, Missionary and entrepreneur...

The entire nation is now focused on the state of Wisconsin and our race Supreme Court Justice. Conservative Bard Schimel faces liberal Susan Crawford in a race where abortion and crime have taken center stage. But, another issue that the court will most certainly face is school choice. In other words, my job is at stake in this election which is why I support Brad Schimel who is also pro-life and is an adoptive father. while I didn't get the opportunity to ask Judge Crawford any questions I did attend one of her rallies. So, I will play a few clips of her thoughts about abortion.
